In the Matter of STACIE MARIE RAU, Minor.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
May 21, 1999
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 211728
Saginaw Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 96-024022 NA
DALE LEE ANDERSON,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
CHARLENE MARIE RAU,
Respondent.
Before: Griffin, P.J., and Cavanagh and Fitzgerald, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from a family court order terminating his parental rights
to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i), (g) and
(j). We affirm.
The trial court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were
established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445
NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the trial court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental
rights, inasmuch as respondent-appellant failed to demonstrate that termination of his parental rights was
clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re HallSmith, 222 Mich App 470, 472; 564 NW2d 156 (1997).
